CADSTI-UK Inaugural Fundraising Luncheon

CADSTI-UK Inaugural Fundraising Luncheon

The Caribbean Diaspora for Science, Technology and Innovation UK’s (CADSTI-UK) will host its inaugural fundraising luncheon at 3pm on Sunday 5th July 2015 at the Holiday Inn Kensington Forum (97 Cromwell Road, London, SW7 4DN) famed for its Caribbean buffet.

In attendance will be the President, Barbadian, Professor Cardinal Warde, of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT).

The event will provide attendees with an opportunity to network and to learn more about the work of CADSTI-UK and the Caribbean Science Foundation whilst enjoying great Caribbean food, drink and music by artistes like Carrol Mapp, Sophia Mackay,Santiago, Jonathan Chase, and Ava Golding.

Guests will have the chance to take home several great prizes during an auction and raffle in the afternoon and all proceeds from the event will go towards sending a UK student to the Student Program for Innovation in Science and Engineering (SPISE) as well as encouraging our young people to study STEM subjects.

The SPISE is led by the Interim Executive Director of the CSF, Professor Cardinal Warde, and is modelled after the well-known and highly successful Minority Introduction to Engineering and Science program at the MIT (web.mit.edu/mites). All SPISE students will participate free of charge, due to generous donations from sponsors.

Tickets are £50 and can be bought directly from CADSTI members or online at EventBrite. If you are unable to attend you can still donate towards this cause at the CADSTI website.
